Reputed to be the city with the most museums in the world, Mexico City has a museum for everything imaginable. Although its archaeological offerings are usually the first thing that comes to the tourist mind, here you’ll find museums dedicated to chocolate, Mexican medicine, caricatures, shoes, old toys… The list is endless.

A street art movement borrowing from the country's indigenous past is sweeping Mexico City.
But this is more than just graffiti. The new urban 'street art' movement sweeping the former Aztec capital borrows heavily from Mexico's indigenous past. But artists are using a very modern tool - Instagram - to spread the message to hundreds of thousands of followers.

Mexico Is Building Biggest Airport In American Continent - Mexico FutureMegaProjectMexico City's New International Airport was announced by Mexican presidentEnrique Peña Nieto on September 2, 2014, and is the largest public infrastructure mega project in a century. The new airport will replace current Benito Juárez International Airport, the busiest airport in Latin America transporting 41.7 million passengers in 2016
This $13 U.S. Billion-dollar airport is expected to begin operations in 2020 with three runways in operation simultaneously and a passenger capacity of 50 million per year. When fully completed, it will have two terminals and six runways with an annual passenger capacity of 125 million , making it the second largest airport in the world today.
The architecture :
The entrance to the terminal will feature a garden of cacti and symbols of the eagle and snake, part of the national symbol pictured on the country's Coat of Arms and flag.
The X is symbolic of the country's name, "México". An X-shape is also considered efficient to extend the number of gates. The X shape is used in the airports of Abu Dhabi, Mumbai, Nairobi, Pittsburgh, and Incheon.
The roof is airy, lightweight, and made of membrane.
designed to be the world’s most sustainable airport, the compact single terminal uses less materials and energy than a cluster of buildings. the design ensures short walking distances and few level changes.
The terminal is to be sustainable, aiming for a LEED Platinum certification.The project claims it is "designed to be the world’s most sustainable airport".

When Oscar and Daniela found a crumbling adobe building in Mexico City, they were inspired to use salvaged materials to transform it into their design studio and home for their family of four.
Using materials found on the street and bought by the kilo (mainly metals), they rebuilt a long, railroad-style home creating their own space-saving furniture, like lofted bed “nests” for their children. They transformed a section of the structure where the roof had collapsed into a live/work lounge. With flooring scraps from former projects, they created a wooden patchwork floor and wall. With reclaimed doors and windows they rebuilt an entire wall which now resembles stained-glass art.
Recovered items serve new purposes: an old door on the property is now the kitchen table; a tipped-over filing cabinet is a mobile dining table with storage. Daniela used 120 recycled soda bottles to create a green wall of plants to add nature to the kitchen. She cut a hole in the bottoms and used their own tops to connect them in long rows so the watering can be done in a loop.
The couple used to work in design firms but grew tired of the creative restraints so launched their own upcycled furniture/jewelry/clothing business called Eclectik. Their work is certainly diverse: they’ve turned broken skateboards and old coins into jewelry, broken mirrors into tables and wood scraps and blenders into lamps. Their latest concept is a recycled tire plante, and even their children have gotten involved in the process.

This episode of Being Frank takes us down to Mexico City. The Franks were in town for chef EnriqueOlvera's culinary symposium Mesamerica, and ended up cooking for two nights at Enrique's restaurant Pujol, which is considered the best fine dining restaurant in all of Mexico. In true Being Frank fashion, this meant tomato sauce, pecorino cheese, eggplant, and The Grateful Dead. Not only did the Franks import the cuisine they are known for in New York, but they brought the laid-back party vibe that they've been cultivating for a long time. The dinners went off without a hitch, and Mexico City's dining elite are now familiar with how to properly enjoy eggplant parm while listening to "Ripple." Buen provecho.

Los Ángeles (band)

Los Ángeles were a Spanish pop group active 1963-1976. Originally the band was known as Los Ángeles Azules (The Blue Angels), the "Azules" was dropped when contracted by Hispavox, then a major independent Spanish label, in 1969.

The band disbanded after the death of two members in a car accident in 1976, though surviving members played reunion concerts in the 2000s.

ARTISTS OF MEXICO

ARTISTS OF MEXICO

ARTISTS OF MEXICO

A new Film by Eric Minh Swenson
Filmed on the occasion of the “Artists of Mexico” exhibition at Jack Rutberg Fine Arts in Los Angeles, this exhibition of paintings, drawings, prints and sculpture explores the impact that Mexican artists had on Los Angeles art, and the impact that L.A. had on them.
Jack Rutberg guides us through this wide ranging exhibition with fascinating insights and historical context.
Included in the exhibition are: Jean Charlot, Rafael Coronel, José Luis Cuevas, Bernice Kolko, Gustavo Montoya, Alfredo Ramos Martinez, Diego Rivera, David Alfaro Siqueiros, Rufino Tamayo and Francisco Zúñiga.
“Artists of Mexico” is a prelude to the Getty Foundation’s region-wide endeavor, “Pacific Standard Time: LA/LA”, officially opening in September 2017. “Artists of Mexico” at Jack Rutberg Fine Arts features artists whose works and careers had particular resonance in Los Angeles by way of the artists’ personal histories in L.A., their many exhibitions in Southern California, and in many instances through their widely known public works throughout the region. For many of these artists, their most avid collectors in the U.S. were indeed in Los Angeles, in advance of their now widespread international museum recognition. Los Angeles’ and Hollywood’s interest in these artists particularly served to expand these artists’ recognition not only throughout the U.S., but also within Mexico.
Jack Rutberg Fine Arts is located at 357 North La Brea Avenue in Los Angeles. www.jackrutbergfinearts.com
For more info on Eric Minh Swenson visit his website at thuvanarts.com. His art films can be seen at thuvanarts.com/take1
Instagram : @ericminhswenson
Eric Minh Swenson also covers the international art scene and his writings and photo essays can be seen at Huffington Post Arts : http://m.huffpost.com/us/author/eric-minh-swenson/

Mexican street art is exploding across the country. Following in the footsteps of a long cultural and political tradition that includes the masters Rivera, Orozco, Siguieros and many others, Mexican streets are now covered in beautiful murals, some authorized and commissioned and others not. The mecca of this movement is at MUJAM in Mexico City, the Museo de Juguetes Antiguo de Mexico/Mexican Museum of AntiqueToys, a modern museum of anthropology. Here I found artist, architect, curator and one of the founders of the movement Roberto Shimizu. On the MUJAM roof is n amazing gallery of works by street artists from around the world who come to MUJAM to contribute, network, meet Roberto and take stock of the state of the movement.

Reputed to be the city with the most museums in the world, Mexico City has a museum for everything imaginable. Although its archaeological offerings are usually the first thing that comes to the tourist mind, here you’ll find museums dedicated to chocolate, Mexican medicine, caricatures, shoes, old toys… The list is endless.

A street art movement borrowing from the country's indigenous past is sweeping Mexico City.
But this is more than just graffiti. The new urban 'street art' movement sweeping the former Aztec capital borrows heavily from Mexico's indigenous past. But artists are using a very modern tool - Instagram - to spread the message to hundreds of thousands of followers.

Mexico Is Building Biggest Airport In American Continent - Mexico FutureMegaProjectMexico City's New International Airport was announced by Mexican presidentEnrique Peña Nieto on September 2, 2014, and is the largest public infrastructure mega project in a century. The new airport will replace current Benito Juárez International Airport, the busiest airport in Latin America transporting 41.7 million passengers in 2016
This $13 U.S. Billion-dollar airport is expected to begin operations in 2020 with three runways in operation simultaneously and a passenger capacity of 50 million per year. When fully completed, it will have two terminals and six runways with an annual passenger capacity of 125 million , making it the second largest airport in the world today.
The architecture :
The entrance to the terminal will feature a garden of cacti and symbols of the eagle and snake, part of the national symbol pictured on the country's Coat of Arms and flag.
The X is symbolic of the country's name, "México". An X-shape is also considered efficient to extend the number of gates. The X shape is used in the airports of Abu Dhabi, Mumbai, Nairobi, Pittsburgh, and Incheon.
The roof is airy, lightweight, and made of membrane.
designed to be the world’s most sustainable airport, the compact single terminal uses less materials and energy than a cluster of buildings. the design ensures short walking distances and few level changes.
The terminal is to be sustainable, aiming for a LEED Platinum certification.The project claims it is "designed to be the world’s most sustainable airport".

When Oscar and Daniela found a crumbling adobe building in Mexico City, they were inspired to use salvaged materials to transform it into their design studio and home for their family of four.
Using materials found on the street and bought by the kilo (mainly metals), they rebuilt a long, railroad-style home creating their own space-saving furniture, like lofted bed “nests” for their children. They transformed a section of the structure where the roof had collapsed into a live/work lounge. With flooring scraps from former projects, they created a wooden patchwork floor and wall. With reclaimed doors and windows they rebuilt an entire wall which now resembles stained-glass art.
Recovered items serve new purposes: an old door on the property is now the kitchen table; a tipped-over filing cabinet is a mobile dining table with storage. Daniela used 120 recycled soda bottles to create a green wall of plants to add nature to the kitchen. She cut a hole in the bottoms and used their own tops to connect them in long rows so the watering can be done in a loop.
The couple used to work in design firms but grew tired of the creative restraints so launched their own upcycled furniture/jewelry/clothing business called Eclectik. Their work is certainly diverse: they’ve turned broken skateboards and old coins into jewelry, broken mirrors into tables and wood scraps and blenders into lamps. Their latest concept is a recycled tire plante, and even their children have gotten involved in the process.

This episode of Being Frank takes us down to Mexico City. The Franks were in town for chef EnriqueOlvera's culinary symposium Mesamerica, and ended up cooking for two nights at Enrique's restaurant Pujol, which is considered the best fine dining restaurant in all of Mexico. In true Being Frank fashion, this meant tomato sauce, pecorino cheese, eggplant, and The Grateful Dead. Not only did the Franks import the cuisine they are known for in New York, but they brought the laid-back party vibe that they've been cultivating for a long time. The dinners went off without a hitch, and Mexico City's dining elite are now familiar with how to properly enjoy eggplant parm while listening to "Ripple." Buen provecho.

A new Film by Eric Minh Swenson
Filmed on the occasion of the “Artists of Mexico” exhibition at Jack Rutberg Fine Arts in Los Angeles, this exhibition of paintings, drawings, prints and sculpture explores the impact that Mexican artists had on Los Angeles art, and the impact that L.A. had on them.
Jack Rutberg guides us through this wide ranging exhibition with fascinating insights and historical context.
Included in the exhibition are: Jean Charlot, Rafael Coronel, José Luis Cuevas, Bernice Kolko, Gustavo Montoya, Alfredo Ramos Martinez, Diego Rivera, David Alfaro Siqueiros, Rufino Tamayo and Francisco Zúñiga.
“Artists of Mexico” is a prelude to the Getty Foundation’s region-wide endeavor, “Pacific Standard Time: LA/LA”, officially opening in September 2017. “Artists of Mexico” at Jack Rutberg Fine Arts features artists whose works and careers had particular resonance in Los Angeles by way of the artists’ personal histories in L.A., their many exhibitions in Southern California, and in many instances through their widely known public works throughout the region. For many of these artists, their most avid collectors in the U.S. were indeed in Los Angeles, in advance of their now widespread international museum recognition. Los Angeles’ and Hollywood’s interest in these artists particularly served to expand these artists’ recognition not only throughout the U.S., but also within Mexico.
Jack Rutberg Fine Arts is located at 357 North La Brea Avenue in Los Angeles. www.jackrutbergfinearts.com

Mexican street art is exploding across the country. Following in the footsteps of a long cultural and political tradition that includes the masters Rivera, Orozco, Siguieros and many others, Mexican streets are now covered in beautiful murals, some authorized and commissioned and others not. The mecca of this movement is at MUJAM in Mexico City, the Museo de Juguetes Antiguo de Mexico/Mexican Museum of AntiqueToys, a modern museum of anthropology. Here I found artist, architect, curator and one of the founders of the movement Roberto Shimizu. On the MUJAM roof is n amazing gallery of works by street artists from around the world who come to MUJAM to contribute, network, meet Roberto and take stock of the state of the movement.

Mexico Is Building Biggest Airport In American Continent : Mexico Future Mega Project

Mexico Is Building Biggest Airport In American Continent - Mexico FutureMegaProjectMexico City's New International Airport was announced by Mexican presidentEnrique Peña Nieto on September 2, 2014, and is the largest public infrastructure mega project in a century. The new airport will replace current Benito Juárez International Airport, the busiest airport in Latin America transporting 41.7 million passengers in 2016
This $13 U.S. Billion-dollar airport is expected to begin operations in 2020 with three runways in operation simultaneously and a passenger capacity of 50 million per year. When fully completed, it will have two terminals and six runways with an annual passenger capacity of 125 million , making it the second largest airport in the world today.
The architecture :
The entrance to the terminal will feature a garden of cacti and symbols of the eagle and snake, part of the national symbol pictured on the country's Coat of Arms and flag.
The X is symbolic of the country's name, "México". An X-shape is also considered efficient to extend the number of gates. The X shape is used in the airports of Abu Dhabi, Mumbai, Nairobi, Pittsburgh, and Incheon.
The roof is airy, lightweight, and made of membrane.
designed to be the world’s most sustainable airport, the compact single terminal uses less materials and energy than a cluster of buildings. the design ensures short walking distances and few level changes.
The terminal is to be sustainable, aiming for a LEED Platinum certification.The project claims it is "designed to be the world’s most sustainable airport".

Couple taps into Mexico City's creativity with frugal design

When Oscar and Daniela found a crumbling adobe building in Mexico City, they were inspired to use salvaged materials to transform it into their design studio and home for their family of four.
Using materials found on the street and bought by the kilo (mainly metals), they rebuilt a long, railroad-style home creating their own space-saving furniture, like lofted bed “nests” for their children. They transformed a section of the structure where the roof had collapsed into a live/work lounge. With flooring scraps from former projects, they created a wooden patchwork floor and wall. With reclaimed doors and windows they rebuilt an entire wall which now resembles stained-glass art.
Recovered items serve new purposes: an old door on the property is now the kitchen table; a tipped-over filing cabinet is a mobile dining table with storage. Daniela used 120 recycled soda bottles to create a green wall of plants to add nature to the kitchen. She cut a hole in the bottoms and used their own tops to connect them in long rows so the watering can be done in a loop.
The couple used to work in design firms but grew tired of the creative restraints so launched their own upcycled furniture/jewelry/clothing business called Eclectik. Their work is certainly diverse: they’ve turned broken skateboards and old coins into jewelry, broken mirrors into tables and wood scraps and blenders into lamps. Their latest concept is a recycled tire plante, and even their children have gotten involved in the process.
